Train spotters describe night time incident at Folkston Funnel (railroad junction)

Four people were train-spotting and camping by railroad tracks at night when they heard noise in brush across the tracks and saw eyeshine and a large silhouette swaying. They reported a foul odor, cats fleeing, and rocks thrown toward them from the brush direction, with impacts sparking on the tracks. One teen went inside while the remaining witnesses heard chatter and a branch snap south of the first figure, leading the witness to think two creatures were present. The witness then lit the brush and saw a tall bipedal silhouette stand before it disappeared, with no further activity over the next two nights.

DUSK PROTEST -- 23 miles south of Macon -- Big rocks thrown around sundown near remote boat launch on Ocmulgee River

In the early evening the witness and a companion parked their off-road vehicle at a remote riverbank and walked to the water's edge after noticing a strong foul odor. Two large stones were thrown from the direction of the woods in a high arc over their heads and landed in the river behind them, though the thrower was never seen or heard. The pair left the area quickly and later associated the odor and rock throwing with sasquatch-related accounts found online.

After verbal warnings shots were fired toward the eyes, which advanced a few steps instead of fleeing, prompting the pair to call for help to leave the woods.

Two servicemen from Hunter Army Airfield describe tent stalking incident on uninhabited Little Tybee Island

Two hunters camping on a remote barrier island awoke in their tent at night to the sound of bipedal footsteps approaching. After silence, something struck their tent and they exited with lights to see a dark, man-sized figure running toward the marsh. They chased it to the marsh edge but could not catch it, and noted a musky odor. They later verified no other boats were present and concluded a person could not have been out in the freezing conditions.
